Christmas!! Again..

Merry Christmas!!





Some of you Northerners may only be just getting going, but for me it is already Boxing Day. I have performed in a Church drama, driven a round trip of over 200 kms to my family for lunch and hosted DH's extended family here for tea...looking forward to a restful day of Australia in the Boxing Day cricket tomorrow while eating left over prawns and desserts! bliss.


Can't go to bed without showing you the lovely gift i received in Chookyblue's SSCS this year, it is from Andrea, Welsh quilter.


Beautiful work, Andrea, and perfectly chosen, Thank you!! Can't show you mine as it may not be opened yet...soon!



Some other shots....My girl made two Gingerbread houses, from scratch!
The poopin reindeer helped demolish this one!


A true "family" shot of my brother with nieces and nephews...some stubborn, some uncooperative, some happy, some sad. it takes all kinds to make a family, but all equally as important. Hope your day was great, back soonest! Tracey

Glad you survived your busy day!!! Gingerbread house making is banned in my house! Too much mess and no success, maybe a kit is the way to go or get your girl to make them!!! Love that 'family' photo!
